Jürgen Klopp revealed news of an injury to Adrian during his pre-match press conference on Friday.
The Spaniard sustained the freak issue amid the celebrations following the Reds’ UEFA Super Cup triumph in Istanbul in midweek, which were prompted by the goalkeeper’s decisive save in the penalty shootout against Chelsea.
Klopp explained a decision will be taken on the morning of the game whether Adrian can face Saints, though the No.13 himself is hopeful about recovering in time to play.
“Today I feel much better,” he told Liverpoolfc.com on Friday afternoon.
